Seminar reviews 2010 ACRA Award winners

Forty turned up in Sydney on the February 28 to hear about four of the award winning entries from last year’s 2010 ACRA Awards
    Water Infrastructure Group spoke about the rehabilitation of the Moreton Bay manholes in Queensland and Gore Creek Viaduct in Sydney; Hyder Consulting and Preservation Technologies spoke about both sides of the coin (consultant and contractor) with their 175 Liverpool Street high rise repair project in Sydney; Hi Tech Remedial and Construction spoke about the refurbishment of a block of apartments at Maroubra Beach, Sydney and Metrocorp Technologies spoke about their Repair Industry Excellence award for the rehabilitation of the NGRS sewer tunnel.
    The seminar provided some interesting detail on the logistics and technical challenges of the projects and how these were overcome. The audience had a chance to quiz each presenter about their projects and gain further insights into why the projects were deserving of their award.
    A networking session followed where everyone got to relax over drinks and finger food. Thanks to all for attending. Further seminars will follow throughout the year including seminars in Brisbane and Melbourne.
